I now reply...
Yes, I have read page 221. I don't think this is a very good
solution, however, simply because I have 9000+ emails that I will be
creating manually/programmatically, and launching IMAIL.EXE 9000+
times does not seem like a very good use of system resources.
I also had asked...
>Now, how do I get TESTING.TXT to get sent via Imail SMTP?
Someone also suggested...
> another solution is BLAT, www.google.com.
BLAT would still need to be launched 9000+ times in order to send
9000+ emails. I still don't think this is a graceful or efficient
method of sending a large number of messages.
Let me ask my question a different way...
Is it possible to place files into the Imail \SPOOL folder so that
the IMail Sendmail service will pick them up and automatically mail
them? I have read the User's Guide regarding the spool files, but
the User's Guide makes no mention as to the internal format of the
spool files, or how to create them manually.
I look forward to any further assistance.
Thank you.
